Name: Qi Qi

Breed: Pure Pomeranion

Gender: Male

D.O. B: 10th January 1998

Background:

Ah Qi was brought to me at the age of 1 year old. He was given to me by one of my close friend, John Tai. The first day (1999) he came to my house, he was exploring the living room, bed rooms and kitchen. The first night, I slept with him outside the living room, worrying that he might cry in the middle of the night at a new environment as he is still considered a young dog.

Growing Up

During the growth phrase, he did not behave like most dogs did, biting shoes, greedy and barking unncessary. But the saddest thing is that he likes to run away on his own to play …………

Daily Care

Every Morning:

1. Bring Ah Qi down for a stroll and do business. (He can do it at home on newspaper but he prefers to go down).

2. Brushed his fur to prevent the fur from flying around in the house.

3. Wash his buttock, abdominal and legs.

4. Towel him dry.

5. His bath is every Sunday, which consists of brushing his teeth, cleaning the ear and eyes and finally comb and blow dry him with hair dryer. 

Character

Ah Qi is a friendly, gently, docile, tame and active doggy. He don’t attack other dogs and will not initiate a bark unless the other party does so. Usually, when small dogs bark at him, he will just ignore and walked away. However if it is a big dog who initiate a bark, he will be agitated and gets very angry.   

Friends

Ah Qi has lots of doggy’s friend, namely Rusty (Pom), Rambo (Pom), Casey (Cockle Spaniel), Teddy (Shetland), Bonny (Coggy), maltese, poddles (Male & Female) and etc. However he is closest to one of the Pom named: Rusty. Rusty does not bother to make any friends with any other dogs. He barks at anything, be it a cat, dog, people or whatever. He barked at me and ah Qi too, initially. But after a few rounds of coincidence meetup, he seems to find Ah Qi friendly and started to befriend him. Sooner, they became good friends and whenever he sees Ah Qi, he will always make an effort to walk over and play with him.

Behaviour

Ah Qi’s antics are very funny. When he was young, he used to scratch my mom’s 4D cut out newspaper or toilet paper either by his nails or teeth. Sometimes, he will retrieve lingerie, undies and socks from the drawer. He did all this only when no one is at home. May be he is angry or feel bored…

There was once at night, he bite the telephone cord and was caught by me. He was so scared as he knows that I get terribly horrible when I am angry. I behave like a maddy woman when I gets angry.. But Ah Qi is really a obedient dog. Whenever I tell him something which is serious and he cant do that, he will not do again. He listened to me most of the time but he gets naughty and rebellious especially when it comes to "play". He used to run away by squeezing himself through the metal grilled of the door.

Date: 5-8 Oct @ Asia Hotel

This shall be my 4th trip to Bangkok. Bangkok’s new airport was ready by 1st October 2006 and we are fortunate to be the first few "thousandzz" who "experienced" the new airport.

My sister and I booked this trip 6 mths ago when we chanced upon Tiger Airway’s promotion. It was only $140 Nett (include taxes). 

There were 4 of us (Siblings) travelling this time round. As per most SIngaporeans would do, we covered the common, yet popular areas:

Shopping areas:                                                                                          Suan Lum Night Bazzar Market, Mah Boon Krong, Siam Sqaure, Tokyo, Gaysorn Plaza, Amarin Plaza, Siam Paragon (New), Plantinum Plaza (New)

Tourist Attractions:                                                                                     The Grand Palace & Erawan Temple (Four Face Buddha)

For Grand Palace, we visited the place as both my sister and bro-in- law have never been there. We started off in the morning and despite it was drizzling, it did not disrupt our trip. We took a lot of pictures and the pictures are available at my Photo Album.

For Erawan Temple, it is a newly built temple. The original was "murdered" by someone for "some reason". The person was beaten to death on the spot then. Usually when I go Bangkok, praying to Four Face Buddha is definitely one of the items I would definitely make an effort to do it.

People also say that when it comes to praying Four Face Buddha, it is usually best pray at 7pm (When the sunset). Four Face Buddha adores girls and as always, I will make sure I am well dressed and make up prettly when praying to Four Face Buddha. Four Face Buddha in Bangkok is famously known for it’s "quick response", especially for "striking lottery and getting a baby". If you sincerely pray and asked for it, one will definitely get it. And if you pray and promised to return for gratitude, then you must make sure that you fufilled your promised. Else one shall be "cursed" …

Does anyone actually know why Four Face Buddha is built at that particular spot, where it is now? The answer is because, Hyatt hotel used to be "haunted" and Four Face Buddha Temple was built to "suppress" it …

Thai Foot and Body Massage

I am not sure why during the foot massage, I no longer feel the "strained" and
"pain". No matter how much strength was applied, I feel "numbness". People often said that when you feel the "pain" and "strained", it means that your body has a lot of "problems". If that is so, does it means that I am getting healthier? haa…  How I wish I am ..

Food

Every day, we will follow the same routine of having our breakfast at the hotel. It is usually packed with people. Lucky we were always the LAST few of the "Early Birds", we don’t have to wait for long before we are showed to our seats.

The next dinning comes around 5-6pm and usually we will just settled at any convenient place. When it comes  to supper, actually, on the first night, we chanced upon a street hawker who served very marvellous, delicious "Tom Yam" & " Barbecue Pork & Chicken". The delicious food were agreeable by 4 of us!!!

The place is actually quite desserted as we have to make our way through a dark, narrow alley, behind the hotel. However, we make an effort not to go there so late.. "Safety is more important"…

Expenses

As usual, the trip is fun and as usual, I had thought that I will not be spending so much money (which I am usually will do so if I have set my mind on that). The last trip when I went Bangkok, I spend only S$200..But this time, I end out spending around $600 which I don’t see myself carrying big luggage back. The things I buy are "naked" to the eyes but worst is that I can’t even "See" what I have bought during this trip!!! People ask me and I cant even tell them what I have bought… **Puzzeled **…

Photo

A lot of pictures were taken using my Nokia Mobile - N73. Was quite impressed with the output. Have upload the pictures into my Photo Album.
